The Sustain Pedal
In The Sustain Pedal, Carol Jennings continues the poetic journey she began in The Dead Spirits at the Piano. Her poems create a connection with the composers she listens to and plays on the piano-Beethoven, Chopin, Brahms, Mendelssohn-as well as with the natural world she loves and mourns for what is being lost. Retreating glaciers, volcanoes, coral reefs, viruses, the outer edge of the solar system-her poetic craft evokes both what we cannot control and what we must learn to control to survive.
The Dead Spirits at the Piano
In THE DEAD SPIRITS AT THE PIANO, Carol Jennings communes with the spirit world - composers, poets, saints, parents, friends, ex lovers, demons, suicides - and traverses a topography of sonatas and symphonies, her mother's piano, her father's drugstore, Greek ruins, limits of mind and body, beached whales, bad dreams, alter egos, the younger self, fairy tales, glaciers, solstice and equinox, changing weather, end of life, and a changing world.
The Jennings Families 1800-1985 West Cork to New Worlds
When Gregg N. Jennings of Columbus, Georgia, U.S.A. retired in 1981 he investigated his father's ancestry. After visits to Ireland, Australia and New Zealand he collected contributions from the extended Jennings families. He co-ordinated the development of a compilation which was produced in 1985 from type-written scripts. In 2000 I produced a replication of this book in computer format which contains substantially the same information. Inaccuracies in the original version still remain. It does now contain a useful Index of Names and Places.
Don’t You Believe Me?
Will someone not wonder what you are about, If the truth remains hidden and does not come out? An opportunity to get your husband the £10,000 that he owed. Does that not sound good? Is that not what Kelly would have thought, and gone along with, when presented with this once in a lifetime offer? But those who presented her with this opportunity, were they really her friends? Were they thinking of her? Or, were they using her, and thought only of themselves? And what of the malicious gossip going on in the background, accusations of which she was totally unaware. If only she had told her husband the truth right from the start, then all the uncertainty and mistrust would not have ensued. But she did not. She wanted everything to be a surprise. Thinking it was the right thing to do but she kept quiet. And the quieter she kept, the more guilty she appeared... As Christmas drew near she decided to tell him the truth. But had she left it too late? Her nonsensical story, her ridiculous version of events sounded so far-fetched and absurd. After all of this time, after all of the secrecy, was she expecting too much to imagine that he would believe her?
No, You're Crazy
When sixteen-year-old Ashlee Sutton's home life falls apart, she is beset by a rare mental illness that makes her believe she's clairvoyant. While most people scoff at her, she begins demonstrating an uncanny knack for sometimes predicting the future, using what could either be pure luck or something more remarkable. And when she helps her drug-addict father win enough casino cash to accidentally overdose, she becomes the target of violent people determined to exploit her, and she goes on the run. Ashlee reaches out to a distant relative, traumatized war journalist Mike Baker. Soon, at least in Ashlee's eyes, they are both plunging dangerously into an existential rabbit hole where their core belief, that humanity and personal connections are a blight, will be put to the ultimate test. No, You’re Crazy is a multilayered novel that examines the many ways a family can wound and heal us. A page-turning thriller and a sensitive look at faith and neurodiversity, it ultimately dares to ask, Who gets to decide what’s real?

Girls Make Media
More girls are producing media today than at any other point in U.S. history, and they are creating media texts in virtually every format currently possible--magazines, films, musical recordings, and websites. Girls Make Media explores how young female media producers have reclaimed and reconfigured girlhood as a site for radical social, cultural, and political agency. Central to the book is an analysis of Riot Grrrl--a 1990s feminist youth movement from a fusion of punk rock and gender theory-and the girl power movement it inspired. The author also looks at the rise of girls-only media education programs, and the creation of girls' studies. This book will be essential reading for anyone seeking to understand contemporary female youth in today's media culture.
